New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is being replaced by Vice President-elect Mike Pence to lead Donald Trump’s transition team, it was announced Friday — and Trump’s children will be advising the president-elect in a formal capacity as well.

Pence spent a decade in Congress and is familiar with the way Washington works, an asset the Trump team is tapping as it prepares for Inauguration Day.

Christie will continue to serve as one of three vice chairs of the transition team, along with Rudy Giuliani and retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.

“Together this outstanding group of advisors, led by Vice President-elect Mike Pence, will build on the initial work done under the leadership of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie to help prepare a transformative government ready to lead from day one,” Trump said in a statement Friday.

“The mission of our team will be clear: put together the most highly qualified group of successful leaders who will be able to implement our change agenda in Washington. Together, we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding this nation — specifically jobs, security and opportunity. This team is going to get to work immediately to Make America Great Again,” he added

Trump spent Friday planning for his new administration.

“Busy day planned in New York. Will soon be making some very important decisions on the people who will be running our government!” the president-elect tweeted Friday morning.
